Cypress Tests for Backstage
Hey 👋 Welcome to the Cypress tests for Backstage. They're designed to be run against the packages/app folder in the main repo, and be some form of smoke tests to make sure that we don't break any core functionality.
Running Locally
In order to make typescript happy, this cypress package is separate from all the Jest dependencies in the monorepo workspaces setup.
You can run the e2e tests locally pointing at your local running version like so:
cd cypress
yarn install
yarn cypress run
Note that the tests expect to run against a built application, so you'll want to
run a Docker image and either create an app-config.cypress.yaml or pass the
necessary environment variables:
yarn tsc
yarn build:backend
yarn workspace example-backend build-image
docker run -p 7007:7007 example-backend
You can open up the cypress console by using yarn cypress open.
You can also run towards any Backstage installation by using the Cypress Environment Variable overrides.
